A method of making a beverage including a gas in a beverage making includes pressurizing a gas storage tank arranged to store a gas, supplying a beverage diluent liquid into a dissolver, and dissolving, by way of the dissolver, portion of the gas into the beverage diluent liquid at a minimum dissolver gas volumes level. The method further includes creating a blended beverage diluent liquid having a selectable target gas volumes level by diluting volumetrically the beverage diluent liquid from the dissolver including the gas, with the beverage diluent liquid which is absence the gas, to form the blended beverage diluent liquid having the predefined target gas volumes level, and dispensing selectively a predefined ratio of a beverage ingredient and the blended beverage diluent liquid to form a beverage.

1. A method of making a beverage comprising a gas in a beverage making machine, the method comprising: pressurizing a gas storage tank arranged to store a gas;supplying a beverage diluent liquid into a dissolver;dissolving, by way of the dissolver, a portion of the gas into a first portion of the be
1. A method of making a beverage comprising a gas in a beverage making machine, the method comprising: pressurizing a gas storage tank arranged to store a gas;supplying a beverage diluent liquid into a dissolver;dissolving, by way of the dissolver, a portion of the gas into a first portion of the beverage diluent liquid at a minimum dissolver gas volumes level;creating a blended beverage diluent liquid having a selectable target gas volumes level by diluting volumetrically the first portion of the beverage diluent liquid from the dissolver, comprising the beverage diluent liquid and the gas, with a second portion of the beverage diluent liquid, which is absent of the gas, to form the blended beverage diluent liquid having the predefined target gas volumes level; anddispensing selectively a predefined ratio of a beverage ingredient and the blended beverage diluent liquid to form a beverage. 2. The method in accordance with claim 1, further comprising: inserting at least one of a beverage making cartridge into the beverage making machine, the beverage making cartridge comprising at least one of the beverage ingredient. 3. The method in accordance with claim 1, further comprising: inserting at least one of a beverage making cartridge into the beverage making machine, the beverage making cartridge comprising a gas source portion comprising a solid gas source that through sublimation emits the gas for pressurizing the gas storage tank. 4. The method in accordance with claim 1, wherein the dissolver is a gas permeable hollow fiber tube and the step of dissolving further comprising: introducing the beverage diluent liquid into the gas permeable hollow fiber tube chamber, the gas permeable hollow fiber tube chamber receiving a fixed volume of the beverage diluent liquid;injecting the gas, at a gas dissolving pressure, into the gas permeable hollow fiber tube chamber, to obtain the minimum dissolver gas volumes level;allowing the beverage diluent liquid and the gas inside the gas permeable hollow fiber tube to reach equilibrium; andreleasing the beverage diluent liquid from the gas permeable hollow fiber tube chamber. 5. The method in accordance with claim 4, wherein the step of releasing further comprising: using the gas, as force, to eject the beverage diluent liquid infused with the gas from the gas permeable hollow fiber tube chamber. 6. The method in accordance with claim 1, further comprising: chilling the beverage diluent liquid prior to dissolving the gas into the beverage diluent liquid, wherein solubility of the gas into the beverage diluent liquid is increased. 7. The method in accordance with claim 1, wherein the minimum dissolver gas volumes level is greater than four and the selectable target gas volumes level is between one-half gas volumes and five gas volumes. 8. The method in accordance with claim 1, wherein the selectable target gas volumes level is between one-half gas volumes and five gas volumes. 9. The method in accordance with 1, wherein the minimum dissolver gas volumes level is in the range of up to nine. 10. A method of making a beverage comprising a gas in a beverage making machine, the method comprising: inserting at least one beverage making cartridge into the beverage making machine, the beverage making cartridge comprising a combination of at least one beverage ingredient and solid gas source, with the solid gas source, through sublimation, emitting a gas;pressurizing a gas storage tank by sublimation of the solid gas source, the gas storage tank being arranged to store the gas;supplying a beverage diluent liquid into the dissolver;dissolving, by way of the dissolver, a portion of the gas into the beverage diluent liquid at a minimum dissolver gas volumes level;creating a blended beverage diluent liquid having a selectable target gas volumes level by diluting volumetrically the beverage diluent liquid from the dissolver, comprising the gas, with the beverage diluent liquid, which is absent of the gas, to form the blended beverage diluent liquid having the predefined target gas volumes level; anddispensing selectively a predefined ratio of the beverage ingredient and the blended beverage diluent liquid to form a beverage. 11. The method in accordance with claim 10, wherein the dissolver is a gas permeable hollow fiber tube and the step of dissolving further comprising: introducing the beverage diluent liquid into the gas permeable hollow fiber tube chamber, the gas permeable hollow fiber tube chamber having a fixed volume;injecting the gas, at a gas dissolving pressure, into the gas permeable hollow fiber tube chamber, to obtain the minimum dissolver gas volumes level;allowing the beverage diluent liquid and the gas inside the gas permeable hollow fiber tube to reach equilibrium; andreleasing the beverage diluent liquid comprising the gas from the gas permeable hollow fiber tube chamber. 12. The method in accordance with claim 11, wherein the step of releasing further comprising: using the gas, as force, to eject the beverage diluent liquid infused with the gas from the gas permeable hollow fiber tube chamber. 13. The method in accordance with claim 10, further comprising: chilling the beverage diluent liquid prior to dissolving the gas into the beverage diluent liquid, wherein solubility of the gas into the beverage diluent liquid is increased. 14. The method in accordance with claim 10, wherein the minimum dissolver gas volumes level is greater than four and the selectable target gas volumes level is between one-half gas volumes and five gas volumes. 15. The method in accordance with claim 10, wherein the selectable target gas volumes level is between one-half gas volumes and five gas volumes. 16. A method of making a beverage in a beverage making machine, the method comprising: inserting at least one beverage making cartridge into the beverage making machine, the beverage making cartridge comprising a combination of at least one beverage ingredient, gas source portion that through sublimation emits a gas, and dissolver;pressurizing a gas storage tank by sublimation of the gas source portion, the gas storage tank being arranged to store a gas;supplying a beverage diluent liquid into the dissolver;dissolving, by way of the dissolver, a portion of the gas into the beverage diluent liquid at a minimum dissolver gas volumes level;creating a blended beverage diluent liquid having a selectable target gas volumes level by diluting volumetrically the beverage diluent liquid from the dissolver, comprising the gas, with the beverage diluent liquid, which is absent of the gas, to form the blended beverage diluent liquid having the predefined target gas volumes level; anddispensing selectively a predefined ratio of the beverage ingredient and the blended beverage diluent liquid to form a beverage. 17. The method in accordance with claim 16, wherein the dissolver is a gas permeable hollow fiber tube and the step of dissolving further comprising: introducing the beverage diluent liquid into the gas permeable hollow fiber tube chamber, the gas permeable hollow fiber tube chamber having a fixed volume;injecting the gas, at a gas dissolving pressure, into the gas permeable hollow fiber tube chamber, to obtain the minimum dissolver gas volumes level;allowing the beverage diluent liquid and the gas inside the gas permeable hollow fiber tube to reach equilibrium; and releasing the beverage diluent liquid comprising the gas from the gas permeable hollow fiber tube chamber. 18.
